Comments Thread For: Paul Williams Ready To Fight Mayweather in March

[Ravens Fan]

What do you mean?

Didn't Paul just fight the best fighter in the world at 154?
Didn't Paul fight Winky Wright?
Didnt' Paul fight Antonio Margarito?
Hasn't Paul been pursuing a fight with Kelly Pavlik for the last year?

The man is a modern day Henry Armstrong.

A modern day Henry Armstrong? I swear I fell off my chair in complete uncontrollable laughter. And as far as Mayweather is concerned. Williams had his hands full with Margarito, Quitana and Martinez and you all honestly believe he could handle one of the best boxers on the planet? And I am far from a Floyd fan but I say he dominates and makes it look easy if he fights Williams. And now someone on the grounds crew at Angelus-Rosedal Cemetery, in LA, will have to fix the big bump in the lawn. Fix the bump that was caused when one "Homicide Hank" rolled over in his grave when someone dared to compare Williams to the great Henry Armstrong.

I agree. Aside from height, pressure and high punch out
put, don't really see what else special Paul Williams imposes
on his opponents. I give him props for being willing to fight
whoever, whenever and bring the heat in the ring but watching
him against Quintana 1 and now Martinez, just confirmed that
he can be outboxed by a slick counter puncher with technical
ring ability. Paul lacks defense and someone who can adapt
to pressure well, can pick him apart. With that said, I would
love to see Floyd in there with him. It's funny how people say
Floyd will duck Paul BUT Mosley and Cotto ducked Paul AND
Freddie Roach, Bob Arum and Manny Pacquiao have NEVER
mentioned Manny getting in the ring with Williams so why
does Floyd get all the heat for not fighting him?

Martinez is a very, very good slick fighter who would give anyone trouble, including Mayweather.

True! Floyd definitely has the skills to beat Paul Williams but at this
point in his career, does he have the hunger and desire to take on
a tough fight?

He hasn't taken one since 2005, so the answer to that question is a resounding NO.

how do you know?



in marquez's defense, at least he ATTEMPTS to fight the best at 147....

pacquiao fights the best at 145, and ducks the best at 147....

That Marquez Mayweather fight was at a catchweight too. Don't you remember??

Floyd already talked about avoiding him to Rugged Man and pretended he didn't exist on Leon's web site. Even if Mayweather is capable of beating Paul, he won't get the guts to fight him. And Martinez said that he's coming to 154 to defend his title. Why fight a guy with no title in Cintron over a guy with a title that was robbed against Cintron? That decision was worse than the Martinez-Williams fight because at least the Williams-Martinez fight was close. And Martinez has that WBC title which Floyd always has fought for. I guess there's no more Baldomirs who hold it.

I mean, yeah, Cintron beat Angulo which is a decent win and all. But it looks to me that Angulo could easily win a rematch if he picked up where he left off at the end of the first fight. Cintron has no mental toughness and that's why Floyd wants to fight him.

What?

Could you imagine the press conference for this fight if it happened?

Mayweather would be talking his ass off and all Williams is gonna do it move his head side to side and say, "know what im sayin?"

[rene s]

It will never ever happen,floyd aint got no balls!!!!!

[Iceta Lives]

Another question I'm asking myself is why isn't Martinez fighting Paul Williams in a rematch since that was such a close fight? Williams is offering him good money from what I read. I thought their first fight could've went either way.

Good articles. As most know Mayweather's not the first to pull the "unprecedented" testing.

Just as I said before, IF PAC wanted the fight all that had to be done was take a test and boxing fans get a fight. Just as all Mayweather had to do was accept the 10 million penalty as most would think he wouldn't do but to are surprise because he WANTS this fight he accepted.

I mean REALLY, BRIAN KENNEDY siding with Mayweather? lol daaaamn



On another note:
Martinez and Mayweather would be a bad ass fight. PWILL was truly exposed in his last fight against a slick boxer and I cant see him beating Mayweather unless he knocked him out which is quit possible.
